Update: “The owner and dog were found yesterday. The dog has been taken into a 10 day quarantine by animal control. We found out today he has a current rabies vaccine (big relief). We are uncertain what will happen after the 10days, but at present it sounds like he will be released to his prior owner (who was questioned, but not taken into custody). A concern for ongoing public safety persists. The immediate threat of the dog and rabies has been removed, but potentially only for the next 9 days.”
“Dear PoPville,
Dog Attack: Yesterday my 1.5-year-old was attacked by an unleashed pit-bull at the Park at LeDroit. Please help us find the man in the video and his dog, we need to confirm rabies is not a threat and ensure the dog is not a threat to others.
Details: ~11am yesterday a man (middle aged, African American) and his dog (white pit-bull with black spots) came to the Park at LeDroit, yelled at the Nannie’s and babies about how this was his park and then his dog attacked my son at the splash pad. Read More

“Dear PoPville,
I want to give a shout-out to the kind strangers that checked on me yesterday after I tripped on a run in Ledriot Park and absolutely ate pavement (sprained my ankle). A nice man pulled over in his car and got out to make sure I was okay (he then kindly drove me home). The woman saw me fall from down the block and together they helped me up. They didn’t have to stop, but they did, and I’m grateful.”
